Somebody has to go from the Pacers, since they're max roster, would assume OJ maybe?

"It's just unfortunate that we've been penalized so much this year and nothing has happened to the Pistons, the Palace or the city of Detroit," he said. "It's almost like it's always our fault. The league knows it. They should be ashamed of themselves to let the security be as lax as it is around here."

We just cut Allen I am assuming. Saved a ton of money in this deal. This gives us insurance if Lance leaves I love this deal. I don't know what Philly is doing. Turner has been bad latley, but early in the year he was playing like an all-star. I think he quit on his team which isn't good, but understandable with how they are rebuilding in Philly.

Nah lol. But I said earlier, the deadline never ends at 3PM. Pacers and Sixers had submitted paperwork to the league office at 2:50 possibly. They made sure there'd be no OJ Mayo screw ups. As long as calls and paperwork were in before 3pm EST...the league gives you an extension to complete the deal.

Not seeing anyone around here being naive about it. Disappointed, in some cases, but no one is acting shocked at anything other than the last-minute of it, I think.

I'm speaking more of the naivety from before when any potential Granger trades were discussed. People thought Bird and the Pacers' front office somehow owed it to him to keep him here for the push for a title. They owed him nothing. As evidenced by this trade.

I wouldn't confuse wishful thinking for naivety.

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
Or throw in a first-round pick and flip it for a max-level point guard...

^This is from last March. He is better than Ian already! He can shoot! Kid has D. West range. Also seems to have better post moves and hands than Ian. D. Aldridge also said he lit up Boston in a playoff series between the two at one point.

The form on his shot, especially the form on his jumpshot/position of his feet, is abysmal. D.West range in 1 (one) game. And who doesn't have better hands than Ian? Anyone not named Ian playing ball with mittens on.
